Sorry I wasn't here this morning. I know. I keep missing out on writing.

I have the best excuse though - I was SLEEPING!

Those of you who know me - you know I can't ever sleep. This morning was different.

I think the stress is finally leaving me alone. I slept and slept and slept.

The end result was that I missed my workout, I missed a meeting (thankfully not with a client), and woke up almost at lunch time. :)

The meeting was with my friend who helps me design and set up things for the business.

This time it was the business cards.

I went to work out this afternoon, and then went with him to get it done.

I really like the result. Check it out:

The "prints" on the shirts are QR-codes. You scan them with your smartphone, and they'll link to something. Try them out. Mind you, they're harder to get to work on a computer screen than they are in print. :)

...

Yesterday, we went for Chinese food, to celebrate Kitty's 6 years' birthday. Hey, any excuse is better than no excuse, right? :)

I did fairly well, but probably not as good as I could.

...

Today, I've done right. It was pretty easy, since I slept half the day. The only thing is that my step count weren't as impressive as usual. That's what sleeping will do.

Still, I've done alright, I had enough protein, enough fat, and probalby a few too many carbs, but still have a calorie deficit.

I'm in no rush. Well, kinda.

...

I'm in no rush in the way that I don't need to lose any weight at any specific time. I like that.

However, I get tired of being in a calorie deficit. I'm tired of having fewer calories available. I want that part to be over with soon.

I'm sorting it out, though, one day at a time. I'm perfectly okay with days with zero deficit, but it annoys me afterwards when I don't move closer to what I see as somewhat an end goal.

On the other hand, I feel GREAT where I am, weight- and strength wise. I love where I am. I have food freedom, but I do want to weight just a little less.

Lowering and maintaining that lower weight is hard work though, compared to where I am now. It's an ongoing mental debate.

...

I still see that there is room for improvement, though. I want to look optimal. I want to FEEL optimal. This is NOT where I am right now. Right now I am probably more at "good enough". And good enough just isn't good enough. Not when I have gone this far, not with the business going. Not with everything I have done.

I just need to do what I need to do, if I want the results. I can't expect results if I don't put in the work, right?

...

This weekend I will be representing my company. It's a full weekend thing at the new gym.

I really hope people will show up.

The new gym is a LOT less busy than the old one. It's a more remote location, and it's brand new. There isn't as large a client group either.

Still, it's worth doing, and it will be a fun time. If it's not, we'll MAKE it fun, dammit. :)

Anyways, it's bedtime. Gotta get up early tomorrow. Busy days coming.

Also, after "work", if we can call it that, tomorrow, we're going to my brother's birthday party. I'll do my best on calories and macros, but this is the year's first (and maybe only) camp fire party, and I'll be damned if I am gonna hold back on home made hot dogs grilled by open fire. :)

...

I will most likely not be on FS again until Monday.

...

Today, I'm thankful for: - A FUN weekend ahead!- Wife! She's still out sick, which sucks. However, I get to have her close a little longer. - Kitty cat!

Have an amazing weekend! I know I will. I will take pictures of my setups, and hopefully get some clients! Let's see!
